Azurite Medical and Wellness: Assisting with Superannuation for Medically Necessary Surgeries

Access Your Superannuation Early for Medically Necessary Surgeries with Azurite Medical and Wellness

If you are suffering from chronic pain and require a medically necessary surgery such as a belt lipectomy, brachioplasty, monsplasty, buttocks lift, or mastopexy, you may be eligible for early access to your superannuation funds through a compassionate release. At Azurite Medical and Wellness, we understand the financial burden these surgeries can place on individuals and are here to guide you through the process of accessing your superannuation.

How Azurite Can Assist You

We have partnered with a qualified general practitioner who can provide the necessary consultation and certification for your compassionate release of superannuation application. This consultation is available for just $388 AUD. Alternatively, if you prefer to use your own GP, we can supply a comprehensive guide to assist them in the certification process for only $188 AUD.

According to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), compassionate release of superannuation can be granted for medical treatment when the following criteria are met:

  • Two reports from registered medical practitioners, one of which must be a specialist, are required - Azurite can assist with both

  • The medical practitioners must certify that the treatment is necessary to treat a life-threatening illness or injury, or alleviate acute or chronic pain or mental disturbance

  • The treatment is not readily available through the public health system

Surgeries That May Qualify

In addition to the surgeries mentioned above, any surgery deemed medically necessary that results in chronic pain may qualify for early access to your superannuation. This includes procedures related to:

  • Skin reduction after significant weight loss

  • Correction of functional impairments

  • Alleviation of chronic pain conditions

At Azurite Medical and Wellness, we are dedicated to helping you navigate the compassionate release of superannuation process so you can focus on your health and well-being.

What surgeries can Azurite assist with?

  • A belt lipectomy, also known as a lower body lift, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks. This comprehensive procedure helps improve the body's contour by tightening the remaining skin. It is often sought by individuals who have lost a significant amount of weight and are left with loose, sagging skin in these areas. The surgery aims to create a more toned and smoother appearance in the lower body.

  • An abdominoplasty, commonly referred to as a tummy tuck, is a surgical procedure used to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen while also tightening the abdominal muscles. This procedure is popular among individuals who have lost a significant amount of weight, women post-pregnancy, or those looking to achieve a firmer and smoother abdominal profile. Abdominoplasty can help enhance body contours and create a more toned appearance in the midsection.

  • A brachioplasty, often known as an arm lift, is a surgical procedure performed to reshape and tone the upper arms by removing excess skin and fat. This procedure is commonly sought by individuals who have experienced significant weight loss or have excess skin due to aging. By tightening and contouring the arms, brachioplasty helps achieve a more sculpted and defined appearance in the upper arm region.

  • A mastopexy, commonly referred to as a breast lift, is a surgical procedure designed to raise and reshape sagging breasts. This procedure involves removing excess skin, tightening the surrounding tissue, and repositioning the nipple to create a more youthful and uplifted appearance. Mastopexy is often chosen by women who experience sagging breasts due to factors such as pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, or aging. It helps restore a firmer and more aesthetically pleasing breast contour.
